BVA BDRC is an award winning international consumer insight consultancy, conducting research in over 90 countries. The agency, part of Paris-based BVA Group, offers the complete range of research consulting and business transformation. We help brands get closer to their customers, improve customer experience and grow the bottom line.
Business Issues
All our clients face challenges which can be addressed by market research - understanding customer needs, product development opportunities, staff motivation, market entry requirements, compliance and more. You need to work with people who know their stuff and can cut through the data to give you meaningful solutions.
